Safety instructions for all
operations
Safety warnings common for grinding,
sanding, wire brushing, polishing, carving
or abrasive cutting-off operations:
a) This power tool is intended to function
as a grinder, sander, wire brush, pol-
isher, carving or cut-off tool. Read all
safety warnings, instructions, illustra-
tions and specifications provided with
this power tool. Failure to follow all instruc-
tions listed below may result in electric shock,
fire and / or serious injury.
b) Do not use accessories which are not
specifically designed and recommend-
ed by the tool manufacturer. Just because
the accessory can be attached to your power
tool, it does not assure safe operation.
c) The rated speed of the grinding acces-
sories must be at least equal to the max-
imum speed marked on the power tool.
Grinding accessories running faster than their
rated speed can break and fly apart.
d) The outside diameter and the thickness
of your accessory must be within the
capacity rating of your power tool. In-
correctly sized accessories cannot be adequately
controlled.
e) The arbour size of wheels, sanding
drums or any other accessory must
properly fit the spindle or collet of the
power tool. Accessories that do not match
the mounting hardware of the power tool will
run out of balance, vibrate excessively and may
cause loss of control.
f) Mandrel mounted wheels, sanding
drums, cutters or other accessories
must be fully inserted into the collet
or chuck. If the mandrel is insufficiently held
and / or the overhang of the wheel is too long,
the mounted wheel may become loose and be
ejected at high velocity.
General power tool safety warnings
g) Do not use a damaged accessory. Be-
fore each use inspect the accessory such
as abrasive wheels for chips and cracks,
sanding drum for cracks, tear or excess
wear, wire brush for loose or cracked
wires. If power tool or accessory is
dropped, inspect for damage or install
an undamaged accessory. After inspect-
ing and installing an accessory, position
yourself and bystanders away from
the plane of the rotating accessory and
run the power tool at maximum no-load
speed for one minute. Damaged accesso-
ries will normally break apart during this test time.
h) Wear personal protective equipment.
Depending on application, use face
shield, safety goggles or safety glass-
es. As appropriate, wear dust mask,
hearing protectors, gloves and work-
shop apron capable of stopping small
abrasive or workpiece fragments. The
eye protection must be capable of stopping
flying debris generated by various operations.
The dust mask or respirator must be capable of
filtrating particles generated by your operation.
Prolonged exposure to high intensity noise may
cause hearing loss.
i) Keep bystanders a safe distance away
from work area. Anyone entering the
work area must wear personal protec-
tive equipment. Fragments of workpiece or
of a broken accessory may fly away and cause
injury beyond immediate area of operation.
Hold power tool by insulated gripping
j)
surfaces only, when performing an op-
eration where the cutting accessory may
contact hidden wiring or its own cord.
Cutting accessory contacting a «live» wire may
make exposed metal parts of the power tool
«live» and could give the operator an electric shock.
k) Always hold the tool firmly in your
hand(s) during the start-up. The reaction
torque of the motor, as it accelerates to full speed,
can cause the tool to twist.
Use clamps to support workpiece when-
l)
ever practical. Never hold a small work-
piece in one hand and the tool in the
